What the difference between Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Round rods or sheets and plate
Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s very easy to turn, but it does require slow speeds. I have used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought many items from iPlastic. Small pieces usually ship promptly and everything was well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are very tough and easily machinable, and they have very comparable physical properties. They do appear similar, but for practical uses there are a few differences that can make one preferable than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our best material for machining,as it gives an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and strength, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many applications and is certainly of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval along with its superb sliding abilities which help with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It provides solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
